A guitar string is played together with a tuning fork whose frequency is 256 Hz, and beats of 2 Hz are heard. In such a case, if initially the tension in the string is 150 N, what must the new tension be, assuming the guitar string is initially higher in frequency than the tuning fork?

A. 148 N
B. 149 N
C. 151 N
D. 152 N
E. The length of the string must be given in order to solve this problem.
